 Honey Poached Pears
 
 
2 Large    Pears, ripe, halved, cored (with each half cut into 6 wedges)  
4 Tbs    Honey  
1 Tbs    White wine  
4 tsp    Dried cranberries  
 
1 tsp    Grated lemon peel  
½ tsp    Ground cinnamon  
1 Tbs    Brown sugar  
½ Cup    Lowfat vanilla yogurt  
 
Preheat oven to 400 degrees
Place large baking sheet in oven to heat. Prepare 4 sheets of foil (about 12 inches long). Place foil sheet on work surface. Arrange 6 pear wedges on one half of the foil. Drizzle with one tablespoon of honey and ¼ tablespoon of wine. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of dried cranberries, ¼ teaspoon of lemon peel, pinch of cinnamon, ¼ tablespoon of brown sugar, and a pinch of nutmeg.
Fold foil sheet in half, sealing the arrangement completely. Repeat with remaining foil sheets and ingredients. Place foil packets on heated baking sheet. Bake until pears are tender, about 10 minutes. Allow to cool completely. Open packets over 4 small bowls.* Top each serving with a dollup of the yogurt and serve.
